Abstract: We read with great interest the article by Hsu et al,1 which presents valuable insights into the potential utility of a multimedia educational tool accessed via QR code for breast cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy (RT), particularly for management of radiation dermatitis. This study presented a 4-minute video explaining RT mechanisms, self-care, precautions, and toxicity grading to patients. It was well received, with a high percentage of participants reporting satisfaction, improved understanding, emotional support, and reduced anxiety.
